Clean, modern decor with very functional layout and furniture. Most of the house has been renovated.

Open living room that opens up to a balcony and view of the lake. The master bedroom has a very comfortable outdoor sitting/reading room that also overlook the lake. There’s a large gas grill for cookouts and 4 Adirondack chairs on the balcony to lounge and enjoy a drink. The back yard rolls gently down to the lake. You’ll find a nice fire pit for s’mores and stories with plenty of firewood around. The dock is perfect to appreciate the sunset of try your luck at fishing for trout, bass, catfish, sunfish or others. Enjoy the 3 kayaks, or paddle board anytime. There are several TV’s throughout the house for evening recreation, board games in the kitchen cabinets, and a large dining table for eight.

Christine W., Athens, GA USA

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was a horrible experience and a financial disaster.
...so much so that we may never use VRBO again. Dirty dishes, grimy floors, scratched and dented bakeware unfit for use, old animal feces on the floor in the basement, overgrown and moldy main entrance. To be fair, the two main bathrooms are renovated and very nice. It was the main living area and kitchen that made it impossible for us to stay the whole time. We couldn't cook anything and went home.

Even though checkin is 3 pm, We arrived about 430 pm just as the lawncare guy was blowing all the leaves accumulated on the property. I would have preferred that to be done prior to our arrival, but i also understand that things happen and maybe it was just a fluke.

This is the second time my family has visited Blueberry Cottage, and we'll definitely be back. Nice interior that has been updated. Good wifi. Sizable kitchen. Fire pit. Easy access to the lake. Really couldn't ask for me.

A perfect getaway
This was one of the most relaxing vacations I've ever taken and I didn't want to leave! There is plenty of space for a family to enjoy time away together-games, a fire pit, puzzles, fishing, and paddle-boarding! The screened porch has a couch that we enjoyed lounging on with our morning coffee on the overcast day. If you plan on kayaking you may want to bring your own attachable seats. Also, apparently a previous guest sunk the peddle boat, so that wasn't available. I know our family will definitely be back to enjoy time together again.

We spent a very relaxing weekend at the Blueberry Cottage. Loved the porch and view. Master bedroom bed was super comfy (would love to know the brand of the mattress). Plenty of space for our two families. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Nice lake home
We enjoyed a great vacation at this lake property. The house was very comfortable and was great to have a dock to keep our boat tied to. Quiet neighborhood and short drive to Toccoa and Lavonia, GA. Would rent this location again.

Nice Place
Attractive decor; lovely, wooded property. A lot of poison ivy, had to be very careful when walking to dock and around firepit. Concerned about safety of deck railing spacing, too easy for a pet or child to fall through. Child/pet gates at the top of stairs would be a good addition. Also need places to hang hand towels and hooks on back of bathroom doors for robes, etc. Our stay was pleasant; spent most of the time on the deck enjoying the peace and quiet.

We had a blast even in the cold!
I’m not sure why this is but somehow it was 63 rainy and cold in late June in Georgia when we arrived. Imagine how excited my three kids were lol. Once we arrived we made the best of it. Awesome location for quiet and paddling around. Nice neighbor dogs and nice neighbors. House had everything you could think of! We enjoyed our stay even more when the sun came out and we were able to not freeze lol.

Fall Weekend Getaway
Lovely, clean home right on Lake Hartwell. Our family enjoyed our fall weekend getaway. We canoed, paddle boarded, and kayaked. We played cards on the long kitchen table and made s’mores at the fire pit. The kitchen was well-equipped to make our family’s meals. It was also nice to have clean towels and linens available. Thanks for sharing your home so that our family could reconnect and recharge.

Perfect getaway home
This was our first time staying at Lake Hartwell in Toccoa area and I would def recommend this little gem to anyone. So roomy and clean. We had a family of 10 and it never felt crowded. Plenty of beds and areas to just hang out. I think they thought of everything a family would need or could use here. The kayaks, peddle boat and paddle board were just a plus. Great communication and very friendly when contacting host with question.
